This was a okay film. The original Children of The Corn was better. Preston Bailey did a wonderful job in this one. The children of the corn series are phenomenal, but this one shouldn't done better but overall a okay one.

**Soulless adaptation that misses the whole point.**

This film follows the short story almost identically, but fails to actually adapt the story. There is zero atmosphere, the characters are unwatchable instead of being entertainingly hateable, the build-up and reveals are non-existent, and to increase the runtime, it is filled with terrible jumpscares and one extremely disgusting scene involving children. Don't watch this piece of garbage and let it fall into obscurity.
